Honolulu and Family pages

I like the colors on both these pages. Not really complimentary to each other but it works.

I realized after I got a few pages done that I hadn't done one for Honolulu, which is our first port, and we have two days there. I'm sure some of the pages will be out of sync but I can work with that. 
The palm trees were cut from Artbooking at about 5 or 6 inches. The word "Honolulu" was cut from Art Philosophy at 1 inch. Each letter was cut out separately. The frame was from Artbooking and I have the cut written down at 10 3/4 but I cut a few so not sure if this is accurate. 
The journaling card in the right hand top corner was homemade. I made the pocket on this page quite large also as I might need to put pictures in it. The huge picture on the front might be for a group picture. I figured it should be quite large as there are 8 of us going. If the opportunity doesn't arise then a nice picture of  Honolulu will suffice. 


I'm hoping to get a family picture here. Actually  4 of them. I'm not sure where I got the background paper for the film strip but it does go nicely with the rest of the page. " Family" was cut from Artbooking at 1 inch. I purchased a book of paper from DCWV called Ledger stack. It had 36 sheets of 6 X 12 inch paper in it. The white paper that is behind the embellishments was from that stack. I added a row of lace to the bottom of the piece. I have a variety of stamp embellishments that I used a few times in here. They are great for a corner that just needs a little something. I made the journal pocket with stamps, the daisy border and 3 copper brads. The little heart in the corner was in a bunch of  frames I bought for my smash book. 
If you go online you find all kinds of sites to print out journaling cards. The card in the pocket was one of those that I printed out on cardstock.
